Quickstart, MCP
Add the looot MCP server to Claude Code, sign in with the browser, check your balance, search the catalog and run a job with fallback.
This walks Claude Code through the browser sign-in flow. Other clients follow the same shape; see Connect your agent for ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, VS Code and more.
Add the server
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http looot https://api.looot.ai/mcpSign in
claude mcp login loootA browser opens on looot.ai. Pick your organization and click Connect. The client keeps its own token and renews it in the background; you never copy a key.
Check your balance
Ask the agent to check the balance, or call the balance tool directly. A new workspace
starts at $0. balance returns topUpLink with the minimum top-up. See
Before your first run.
Top up
Call the top_up tool (amountUsd is optional) to get a Stripe Checkout link, or pay at
looot.ai/usage?top_up=1. looot never sees your card and the
agent never enters card details.
Search the catalog
Call search with a plain-English query, for example “verify an email address”. It returns
endpoint ids, providers, prices and each row’s access (runs_now, needs_your_account or
coming_soon).
Run a job with fallback
Call run with endpointId: "job:<job id>", your input, a fresh idempotencyKey, and
fallback: true. looot picks the first provider of that job it can run for your workspace,
and with fallback set, moves to the next one of the same job if the first misses. The run
carries requestedJob (which provider was picked and why) and, with fallback, route
(every attempt tried and what happened).
